Tornado Watch #219 update

Tornado Watch #219 continues in effect for much of central KY including Frankfort, Lawrenceburg, and Campbellsville through 23:00 (11PM) tonight.  There are not many storms out there at the moment, except for the supercell that caused damage in Grayson and Hardin Counties.  This storm is weakening and the warnings have not been continued on it.  SPC has indicated that later tonight, another Tornado Watch may possibly be issued for parts of central Kentucky due to convection that has blown up across western Kentucky again and is moving generally this direction.  Madisonville, KY is about to get HAMMERED as of 22:00 EDT.

In the Lawrenceburg area, I wouldn't lose sleep over it.  I would just make sure to keep the weather radio on alert mode nearby so that if warnings are issued you can be alerted to them....but for now it appears that things should remain relatively quiet for at least a few more hours.  Storms will likely be widely scattered for a while tonight before business picks up again tomorrow.
